Kendall King

Hello and Welcome!
I'm Kendall King, the 6th grade teacher here at Highmore-Harrold Elementary.
I'm a 2006 graduate of Highmore High School and a 2011 graduate of Black Hills State University, where I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Science: Elementary Education and Special Education. The 2022-2023 school year marks the 12th year of my teaching career. My duties include teaching math and science to both 5th and 6th grades.
My husband, Chip and I, and our sons, Charles and Henry, live here in Highmore. We enjoy spending our free time camping, fishing, hunting, cooking, and spending time with our family and friends. Our boys are wild, full of heart, and they keep us entertained everyday!
In our classroom, we focus on hard work, responsibility, and accountability. Students are expected to show up to school on time and prepared to put in a full day's work. I do not assign homework unless a daily assignment doesn't get completed in the amount of time that's been allowed in class. If an assignment does go home, it is to be completed and handed in by the time we start that subject the next day in class. I believe that when my students go home, their time needs to be spent doing things with their families that I can't teach them in school.
To contact me, please use my school email. (kendall.king@k12.sd.us)
